LaGrange teen allegedly shoots at home with stolen rifle, police say

LAGRANGE, Maine — After a fight with his family, a 17-year-old male left his house and allegedly fired a stolen rifle at the home, according to police.

The teen, who is not being named because he’s a juvenile, allegedly stole a .22 caliber Marlin rifle from a residence on the North Road in Medford on or about April 29, said Lt. James Kane of the Piscataquis County Sheriff’s Department on Tuesday.

On May 1, there was a family fight at the LaGrange home of the juvenile, said Kane.

“He had a disagreement with the family,” said Kane. “He left the residence and he shot at the house.”
